Here is some video I took yesterday at La Jolla Cove in La Jolla, CA. This is the area where the divers and the swimmers enter the beach via the stairs over to the left. I love the tranquile sounds of nature and the sound of the ocean! It was a beautiful day yesterday and I am testing my video camera on my cell phone! 05/07/2010

I was out taking video yesterday with my cell phone (yes cell phone) and I took pictures of the structures that were located directly across the street.

It is a pretty interesting story and these stick out like a sore thumb! 05/07/2010
